hey guys,

i just jumped on someones wifi to get these questions answerd.

the tb has two coolant lines, where do they come from, I have them mixed up with the coolant line to the rear turbo, and because i just isntalled 13t's the length for the turbo line doest oline up, so its hard to tell which is which.

also, can someone tell me which letter goes with which nipple on the top of the tb i shaved mine off while polishing. thanks.

The two coolant lines to the TB come from, return to the waterneck... if you can wait, I can go take a picture for you...

yeah i can wait.

i have three coolant hoses left to connect, 2 for the tb and 1 for the rear turbo. by looking in caps i see that the rear turbo hose is the one closest to the filler cap, so i just need the TB hoses now (which i am thinking are safe to reverse).

Sorry I can't help with the lettering/nipple question, I long ago got rid of all those vacuum lines

q2418130103p · 07-07-2008, 05:31 PM

great!

so it looks like the tb nipple closest to teh battery comes from the coolant line going to the firewall, and the tb nipple closest to the engine comes from some part of the filler next ( i assume below the coolant line connection for the rear turbo?)

The coolant line closest to the engine connects to the tap right next to the thermostat, and the coolent line closest to the battery connects to the back side of the waterneck right next to the line to the heater core (the big hose to the firewall)

I appreciate it, though that isn't why I did it... after all, haven't we all been there on the side of the road? It isn't a matter if "will" you be stuck on the side of the road, but "when".

I have said it before, and I will say it again, we share a common love of these cars, and this makes us a family of sorts.

Thanks again,
Scott
